I’ve known one the men im dating about two months. We meet at a social activity weekly, and it was there he asked me out. So far, I count it as two formal dates we’ve had. I let him kiss me a bit on our last date, which was fine, but I don’t want it to go sexual. A little making out can quickly turn steamy, as we all know. I’ll be seeing him tonight at the social gathering, and undoubtedly he’ll try it kiss me.

That being said, I need to thwart his efforts. How do I do so effectively? I’m considering something like, “I’m having fun, but I’m not interested in moving this fast.” He doesn’t get to kiss all up on and get the girlfriend experience after only two formal dates.
